Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...(using 9.0.6.6) had trouble with the RTMP Record feature last night while trying to capture a live broadcast from Ustream.tv. browser warns that it is "recording" when trying to close the window, and a file is saved, but the filesize is always 0-1kb. just a suggestion for future GFLV releases.

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...I purchased GetFLV about a month ago, and like it very much. However, I am having a problem when the filesize exceeds 2048MB.
I have emailed support several times and have not received any response, so I thought I might get an answer on this forum. After using the program for a while, I have observed that once the saved file size reaches 2048MB, the status displays a large negative number. In this condition, the file will continue to download and the program has no problem with the actual file exceeding 2048MB. If nothing interrupts the stream, the program will continue downloading until finished and the status indicates 100%. This is where the problem occurs. Once the file has reached 100%, after only a few minutes the program will reset the saved file back to zero length. The only way to keep the file is to either quickly copy it before the program resets it to zero, or to abort the program using "end now" in Window's program manager. I would like this resolved because most of the videos I wish to download are over 2048MB. I have a 8 core 3Gig i7 CPU with 3Gig Memory. Windows XP SP3, updated recently. Internet Explorer 8 Flash Player updated to most recent 11.1.102.55 650GB free space on Hard Drive. GetFLV v9.0.68 |

Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...In my experience with HBOgo and MAXgo, it appears that their server is throttling based on bandwidth. If I try to download a single movie, GetFLV reports a bandwidth of over 1 Mb/s. At this rate the movie will fail to completely download. I discovered that if I download several movies at once from HBOgo, then the bandwidth for each movie is around 200-300Kb/s. With this lower rate, the movies usually finish downloading.
I just have the problem described in my previous post that if the downloaded filesize goes over 2048MB, then GetFLV screws up and resets the downloaded file back to 0 Bytes. I wish someone from GetFLV would address this issue. Please let me know if you have this same issue on your Windows 7 machine. |

If you download multiple things at once doesn't it bump the quality down? I would also try pausing each download until I have a few of them queued, but when I try to resume a download it ALWAYS fails. Also, my average download speed is 2.6MB/s. |
Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...Did you mean that you are also seeing the 2048MB limit?
It looks like you have a faster connection than I do. I don't know of another way to throttle the download speed. Ideally you could connect at full speed, and then limit the speed so HBO's server doesn't cut you off. I suggested this to GetFLV support but have had no response in over 2 months. For me, the quality issue seems to have more to do with HBO's server and how busy the internet is. Usually in the daytime, it always auto picks a low res picture, but late at night I can have four hi-res movies downloading, each 3-4 GB in length, I often have the same movie downloading multiple times so if one stops working there are still 2 or 3 other copies that might succeed. (unfortunately I have to babysit them when they are over 2048MB so I can save the finished file before GetFLV resets it to 0 Bytes). |

When baby sitting files over 2GB how much time do you have to react before getflv resets it to 0? |
Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...You have maybe 1-3 minutes before the file resets.
On my system (XP) I can do a copy and paste of the file and that seems to hold off the file being reset until the copy is complete. I can also just force close the GetFLV program and it usually keeps the file from being reset. |
Re: GetFLV - Troubleshooting many problems with GFLV ...Dear Scottie, Scottie:
Sorry for the "2048MB" problem. We have been dealing with this issue for 2 months. However, we still can not fix it now. :confused: What file system are you running now? NTFS or FAT32? FAT32 has the "2GB File Size Limit". So please convert your file system to NTFS and check your problem again. If you are using NTFS file system, it must be a bug of GetFLV. We will try our best to fix it. :cool: |
